Sabyasachi Mukherjee showcases bridal wear

Mumbai, Oct 15 (UNI) Sabyasachi Mukherjee showcased his unconventional ethnic women's wear last night at the Lakme Fashion Week which is underway at the NCPA here in Mumbai.

Sabyasachi Mukherjee unveiled his long awaited formal and bridal wear collection -- Shararas, lehengas, floor length angarkhas, kurtas, kurtis, waist coats with shawl lapels, glittering dupattas and odhanis, shimmering flowing pajamas, saris in all their ethnic splendour.

The mix of fabrics, prints and a multitude of colours is Sabyasachi's expertise and he mixed, matched, contrasted and fused everything possible.

Silhouettes for the kurtas revived the vintage glamour of the Mughal era as hemlines nearly kissed the floor or rose to knee level.

Prints were pure unadulterated ethic while fabrics ranged from cotton, silk, chiffon, georgette, brocades to lush velvets which were blended together for different segments of each garment.

The finale creation -- a black multi-panelled patterned silk lehenga with exquisite glittering embroidery worn with a glittering blouse and odhani was the ultimate bridal offering as singer Sukhvinder Singh ended the show on a high note.
